Fees overview

Fees
Our fees are £8 per hour for children aged 2-3 years and £7.50 for children aged 3-4 years on government grant.
Invoices are issued at the beginning of each half term with a pay by date. If your child is sick or you take a holiday fees must still be paid. Your invoice will be dated from and to our term dates, which run closely with the school term dates, and these are not flexible.
Government Grant
Your child becomes eligible for grant the term after their 3rd birthday. All children will be eligible 15 hours paid for by the government grant and up to 30 hours per week if you are registered and eligible. You need to re-confirm your eligibility for 30 hours every three months with HMRC. This is for 38 weeks a year. You will receive more information at the time as this process can change.
Any time over and above your grant hours, early morning sessions and lunch time 12pm – 1pm will be charged at £8 or £7.50 (dependant on age) per hour or part thereof. This is by arrangement only.
We are also able to offer funding for 2 year olds subject to eligibility. Please ask for details.
